I was walking around, just a face in the
JXUwMDNiJXUwMDExJXUwMDFkJXUwMDE4JXUwMDEz
Trying to keep myself out of the rain
Saw a vagabond king wear a styrofoam
JXUwMDNiJXUwMDExJXUwMDFkJXUwMDE4JXUwMDE5
Wondered if I might end up the
JXUwMDJiJXUwMDEyJXUwMDBjJXUwMDA4
There's a man out on the corner
Singing old songs about
JXUwMDNiJXUwMDBiJXUwMDA5JXUwMDBmJXUwMDA5JXUwMDAy
Everybody got their cross to bare, these days
She came looking for some shelter with a suitcase full of
JXUwMDNjJXUwMDE2JXUwMDE3JXUwMDA0JXUwMDBjJXUwMDFl
To a motel room on the boulevard
I guess she's trying to be James Dean
She's seen all the disciples and all the
JXUwMDJmJXUwMDE2JXUwMDBmJXUwMDAwJXUwMDBmJXUwMDAzJXUwMDA3JXUwMDE2
No one wants to be themselves these days
Still there's nothing to hold on to but these days
These days - the stars seem out of reach
These days - there ain't a ladder on the streets
These days are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless
JXUwMDM5JXUwMDA2JXUwMDAy
There ain't nobody left but us these
JXUwMDNjJXUwMDA1JXUwMDE4JXUwMDBh
Jimmy shoes busted both his legs, trying to learn to
JXUwMDNlJXUwMDBhJXUwMDE1
From a second story window, he just jumped and closed his
JXUwMDNkJXUwMDFjJXUwMDFjJXUwMDE2
His momma said he was crazy - he said, "Momma, I've got to
JXUwMDJjJXUwMDA2JXUwMDBi
Don't you know that all my heroes
JXUwMDNjJXUwMDBkJXUwMDBjJXUwMDAx
?
And I guess I'd rather die than fade away."
These days - the stars seem out of
JXUwMDJhJXUwMDE3JXUwMDA0JXUwMDAyJXUwMDBi
But these days - there ain't a ladder on the
JXUwMDJiJXUwMDA3JXUwMDA2JXUwMDE3JXUwMDAwJXUwMDExJXUwMDA3
These days are fast, nothing lasts in this graceless
JXUwMDM5JXUwMDA2JXUwMDAy
Even innocence has caught the midnight
JXUwMDJjJXUwMDA2JXUwMDEzJXUwMDA4JXUwMDA3
And there ain't nobody left but us these days
I know Rome's still burning
Though the times have
JXUwMDNiJXUwMDBiJXUwMDA5JXUwMDBmJXUwMDA5JXUwMDAyJXUwMDAx
This world keeps turning round and round and round and round
These
JXUwMDNjJXUwMDA1JXUwMDE4JXUwMDBh
These days - the stars seem out of
JXUwMDJhJXUwMDE3JXUwMDA0JXUwMDAyJXUwMDBi
But these days - there ain't a ladder on the
JXUwMDJiJXUwMDA3JXUwMDA2JXUwMDE3JXUwMDAwJXUwMDExJXUwMDA3
These days are fast, love don't last in this graceless age
Even innocence has caught the midnight
JXUwMDJjJXUwMDA2JXUwMDEzJXUwMDA4JXUwMDA3
And there ain't nobody left but us these
JXUwMDNjJXUwMDA1JXUwMDE4JXUwMDBh
These days - the stars seem out of reach
These days - there ain't a ladder on the streets
These days are fast, nothing lasts
There ain't no time to
JXUwMDJmJXUwMDE2JXUwMDEyJXUwMDA3JXUwMDEx
There ain't nobody left to take the
JXUwMDNhJXUwMDBlJXUwMDBkJXUwMDBjJXUwMDA4
There ain't nobody left but us these days
